We like American TV shows because it satisfies a lot of our curiosity and explains a lot of questions. Can "Gossip Girl" take the world by storm or is it because most people don't understand and are interested in this minority elite group, what kind of environment do children from rich families live in? Outside of their limited study time, where does the real "upper-block life" begin? Why do rich people get bored? What is the difference between the disputes between the Jiaojiao girls and the market aunts? This movie really did not disappoint us. It not only truly showed the lifestyle of the upper class, but also made ordinary people wake up to the beauty of ordinary life through the contradictions between them. Being rich does not necessarily mean happiness. There are quite a few things to watch in "Gossip Girl" around Serena and Blair's friendship and conflict.
one. Serena and Blair
As the saying goes, one mountain cannot hold two tigers. What two excellent women collide with is not necessarily a spark, but probably gunpowder. I really feel sorry for Blair, if there is no Serena, she must be the most dazzling girl in the whole school and the upper block, this sweet and well-behaved girl with soft black hair has every look in her eyes, but she doesn't. However, her best friend has become her biggest obstacle. Since the history of Shengyu and He Shengliang is repeating again, there is no suspense in the comparison with Serena. I was very surprised to see Serena at first, not because of how beautiful she was, the chiseled lips when she spoke, the chestnut hair that fluttered when she turned away, the eyes that didn't stop when she saw her prey, wandering between rock singers and ladies Between the temperament, I surrendered my gun! Of course, there is also her persistence in herself and the courage to pursue the ordinary and poor Dan, and if it is not for the occasional accident, there is no doubt that her love is still very sweet. Remember when Blair's mom asked Blair to model for her new design for a photo shoot? In several photos of the two people appearing at the same time, Blair's regular pose is like an old lady, while Serena's fluttering hair is the emergence of passion; Blair's shy smile is really sweet, but Serena's open mouth expression is bold and flamboyant; Blair's puppet-like school moves are spot on, but Serena's casual poses are even more intriguing. In today's era of unleashing individuality, Serena wins simply and neatly.
two.
Banquets and parties in the upper block seem to be part of daily life. Fortunately, Americans do not have as many holidays as we do, otherwise just seeing them wearing various banquet dresses is enough to suffocate; luxury and extravagance are the keynote of their lives. , so the appearance of the Dan family can only be attributed to the many strange eyes around; chaos and decadence are also the characteristics of this small group, so Serena is determined to "be good" The road is difficult, and the temptation around is everywhere, so her charm is more People are moved.
You can easily distinguish the people in the upper block from the crowd. It is not a "Christmas tree" covered with gold ornaments, nor is it an act of ostentation like a nouveau riche. Price, just want what you like, or picky and insist on non-necessities. So Serena pursues Dan, and doesn't care about food and clothing together, because she is Serena, and all the outside are her foils; so Blair treats everything that can be chosen, including friends, to be very demanding, in order to match himself.
For ordinary people, life in Shangjie is very mysterious. Driving a BMW, wearing ancient clothes, and picking up a coffee cup may all be handmade products from Italy in the 16th century, but friendship in Shangjie will also be betrayed, and love is not. All of us will surely usher in spring, and let go of their flashy appearance. Their lives are just like us on the other side of the earth. They are also full of helplessness. Let me sum it up in one sentence from Yishu: Happy lives are all the same, and unfortunate lives are different. each misfortune. Watching the rich get in trouble, we often secretly rejoice and sigh that life is so beautiful.
three. The average person on the street
is actually on the street no special people, Blair's mother career peak, but for failing marriage powerless; Serena's mother by marriage and divorce continue to share the other half of the property, no one can tell Hidden Words ; As for Nate and Chuck, each family has their own unspeakable pain, and these rich second-generation people are not so easy. Ordinary people in the real sense should be the Dan family. The father of an unknown band musician who also runs a small gallery in recession. Facing his wife's derailment, he can't get it back. The re-encounter of his former lover can only make life more hectic. The sons and daughters who were in the upper-class circle during the rebellious period, all this made him unable to deal with it. Perhaps he was the most realistic portrayal of ordinary people. Money can't change life. Maybe it's because of the exhaustion of their parents. The rich second generation chooses to live a life of indulgence. Blair no longer refuses to "contact" with Chuck. Besides changing girlfriends, Chuck is accompanied by soft drugs. The most sad thing is that Little J, who never forgets to look at people's faces when he speaks, is a little Jine. His decadent appearance in the second part made everyone feel sorry and distressed.
As the saying goes, who doesn't talk about people in front of them, and who doesn't talk about them behind their backs, gossip is human nature, who makes us live in a complex society, but in an era where high-tech means are everywhere and there is no privacy at all? . Even the old lady Baiyun in the village of Tieling said: Celebrities without gossip are not celebrities. Gossip has become a sign of personal attention. No wonder everyone in "Gossip Girl" has accumulated so much talk. The people on the block are the most ordinary people, and the people on the block are also those who have troubles. Thanks to "Gossip Girl", we realize that God is fair, and ordinary life may be the most cherished.
